We work with St. Louis citizens and community leaders to prevent homelessness, energize local economy, strengthen neighborhoods, and end the decay of our City's historic structures. Through community programs focusing on education, entrepreneurship, and home ownership opportunities, we help urban families become more sustainable, productive, and informed. People over property.

Deputies, Donors, and Clients

This evening, PRTR clients and donors met at Julia Davis Library for our first Uplifting Networking Event. Deputies Jennings and Gower from the Sheriff’s Department joined us to explain the tax auction process. We shared skills, stories, information, inspiration, and a few laughs! Excellent conversations had and connections made. Looking forward to the next meet-up in January 2016.

“If everyone is able to pay their taxes or come to the auctions and purchase these vacant buildings,” said Deputy Jennings, “that puts me out of a job. And I would be happy about that! It would mean everything in our city is going well.”
